Had a splendid time tent camping here, and would def love to come back. For a group of 4 with two tents, it was great! Could probably handle more peeps, too. It was one person's 1st time, and she loved it! The kitchen was very nice to have, and we loved the fire pit area and table patio area too. We probably overprepared for this trip, but I definitely recommend being overpacked rather than underpacked coming here. The drive down was easily manageable by my RAV4 and partner's Tacoma. A smaller car might have a little trouble, especially if it rains. There is one especially bad divet/washout close to the beginning of the trail, so watch how you go over it. I wish there was a full set of bags for the cornhole! And a bit bummed we couldn't go into the balcony area, but we made do without

It's a beautiful and quiet place with it's own little hiking trail. It rained when we went but I just set up my cot in the open shed and was good to go. Ot's a lovely and private place.

We loved so many things about this campsite. It was beautiful, secluded, interesting, and equipped with everything we needed and more. The cool kitchen/deck/fireplace area was great to cook, eat and just hang out in and perfect for when it rained. The sounds of birds and the stream were refreshing and soothing. We enjoyed the stars, the greenery and flowers, frogs and dragonflies... We did see several small snakes that we think are non-venomous. Not a deal breaker for us but I'm mentioning it in case finding them would ruin someone's vacation. We will definitely try to come back. Vince was also generous and great with communications.

Private and lovely

Tent

This was a truly unique and beautiful site. It’s very accessible by the main road, and close to the highway. You’d never know that, however, sitting by the little pond and listening to the wind in the trees. The bunkhouse was a great option for last-minute solo tent camper chickens such as myself. The open kitchen and dining spot was really nice as well. Vince was super responsive as well. I would definitely stay there again.
